Biographic Information

If you use a chosen name, select Yes and enter the information.

If you are sending any documentation or test scores where your name is listed differently than it appears on your application, select Yes in this section and enter the alternate or former information. This ensures that your documents and test scores are matched to your application. Contact customer service so they can manually match these items to your application; failure to do so could cause significant delays.

Examples of alternate or former names include:

• Birth names (if different from current legal name)
• Maiden names
• Nicknames (e.g., "Bob" for Robert, "Beth" for Elizabeth, etc.)
• "Westernized" names
• Alternate punctuation (e.g., your name appears with/without a hyphen, apostrophe, or diacritical marking)
• Alternate spacing (e.g., your name appears with or without specific spaces)
• Known misspellings (if a document contains a misspelling)

Enter your date of birth. Make sure you enter your date of birth correctly; failure to do so could cause significant delays with matching documentation and test scores.
